ONTIC DONATES MUCH NEEDED SCHOOL SUPPLIES TO GRANVILLE COUNTY CHILDREN

Arriving just in time for the start of the school year, the Granville County Public Schools (GCPS) team have already set about distributing Ontic’s donations – consisting of backpacks, stationery, and other school supplies - directly into the arms of students who will benefit from them.

Superintendent for GCPS, Stan Winborne, said: “We were so impressed by the amount and quality of items and supplies donated to our students. It was an amazing gesture of support for our students, our schools, and our community. It brings me pride to see our local business and industry partners joining the effort to make our community a better place for all.”

The GCPS are making great efforts to support their students’ social, emotional, physical, and general health and wellness, so Ontic’s Creedmoor employees have been eager to support however they can. In addition to donating these school supplies, they have been collaborating with the GCPS Career and Technical Education programs to support education and routes into employment through internships and trainee schemes.

Javier Hernandez, General Manager of Ontic’s Creedmoor facility, added: “At Ontic, we’re always looking to create the opportunity for the next generation, whether that’s by supporting them through initiatives like this or through helping develop skills for the future through our internship programs. It’s great to be able to support these young people and wish them best of luck with the school year ahead.”
